Re: Scout regiment scope
It was part of the issued kit with the No.4T sniper rifle in the fitted chest along with a compass ,binoculars the scope No32 and it's tin and a sniper veil. These scopes in good condition have brought over £500 at auction.

Re: Scout regiment scope
I've sold three in the last four years, currently fetching sub £300, about ten years ago you could get £500 for mint examples.
